HEY GAL posted:wait, ceciltron, where are you from Quebec. We're old-school french catholics. No sedevecantists or traditionalist movements afaik though. I could do an effortpost on the religious history of the province in the last 400 years, given the fact the place was more puritanically catholic than ireland until the 60s, if anyone wants.

If I remember correctly, the ancient greek (and to some extent the roman) pagans believed their gods did not have blood, but rather ichor, a purplish thick substance that was not blood in their bodies. The emphasis christ had blood might serve to delegitimise those traditions, though I'm just guessing here.

Cythereal posted:Personally, I think there's a credible argument to be made that an impulse towards spirituality - if not religion per se - is baked into the human psyche. The idea of a basic impulse towards God and Good is more or less the foundation of Catholic catechism.

I LIKE COOKIE posted:Why would a therapist try and suppress me? Is that what mental health is about in this country? Suppression? I do not agree with that. We should encourage those with unusual brains to flourish. You are not mentally healthy. For the love of God, pay attention to what everyone has been trying to subtly or perhaps less than subtly say: God is not talking to you. You are looking for connections so hard, and your grasp of reality is sufficiently tenuous, that you claim contact with the divine through faulty electronics. This isn't charming or fun, it's creepy and terrifying.

It is terrifying because it is a question of the connections you are making between your playlist fuckups. All it takes is a bad day and some bad musical choices for you to decide that God has told you to Let The Bodies Hit The Floor /In Reno, Just/ Want To Have Fun. If I knew the guy next to me on the bus was urgently shuffling through his mp3 player list to find secret messages from God, I would get the gently caress off the bus.

We have to remember that, in the most basic sense, Saints are those we are certain are in Heaven. I think it's really presumptuous to assume that anyone who Did A Violence cannot go to Heaven, or that we know better than the Church in these matters. Soldiers and generals can be good and holy, just as they can be vile and wicked. Ours is not to judge.

Its most prominent proponent just happened to be the personal physician of Louis XIV, and, well, Gold makes sense, given that it doesn't rust or tarnish and is fairly malleable and warm. I imagine rose gold with a bit of copper in it might have decent antibacterial properties, as well!
